I just stopped whatching movies altoghere for a few tears now. I am doing just fine.
why?
movies are great
They are great yeas, but they are also non essential. They are far from being essential.
yeah, but living life with only the essential stuff would be kinda boring, don't you think?
I feel like movies are just too restrictive in terms of time, whereas TV shows give a story far more room to properly be told. Movies are like the visual equivalent of turning a 1000 page book into a 100 page novella and insisting nothing important has been left out.
Of course, some stories can be told well in 1.5 to 3 hours but for the most part, I think movies are a poor format for storytelling.
